Note di degustazione
Marked by hints of tar and black pepper on the nose, Clape's 2016 Cornas is earthy and savory, loaded with notes of black olives but with enough blueberries and blackberries to satisfy fans of fruit as well. It's full-bodied, rich and tannic but not tough or hard, with incredible balance. It's so harmonious that it's not overly difficult to drink now, yet it should age gracefully for a couple of decades.

Granite, smoke and the blackest possible fruit. Has that soulful mineral note of the best wines. Petrichor! Thick palate texture. A grand, multi-layered edifice, with exquisite detail. (RH)
This has deep, smoky notes and a quite tarry edge, too. The dark plums and black fruit pastilles are assertive here. Very succulent and long with freshness and composure. This is a very elegant Cornas. Excellent length. Try from 2023.
Bacon, prune, black cherry. Super-fine but very firm tannins, finishing with beef stock, game and a ferrous aroma. So lengthy! The benchmark. (RH)
